The walkthrough

  1. 01 Citi uses a 48-month lockout on the same welcome bonus — if you had Citi Premier/Strata in the last 4 years, you're blocked.
  2. 02 Apply and hit the $4,000 spend through normal household expenses.
  3. 03 Book a $100+ hotel via Citi's portal at any point in the year to trigger the hotel credit.

What to watch for

  • ! Citi is reportedly revising this card — including a possible annual-fee increase to $195. Confirm the current terms on Citi's site before applying.
  • ! The 48-month family rule now groups Premier, Strata Premier, and legacy Prestige. Past Citi travel cards count.
  • ! Transfer partners are decent but thinner than Chase or Amex.
Editorial note

Offers change frequently. BonusPrimer verifies every bonus monthly, but before you apply, confirm the current terms directly with the issuer. We are not a bank and do not decide approvals. Our methodology →
